Backcountry skiing on Song Kul

Backcountry ski with horses – copyright Nomad’s Land

From November to May, Song Kul houses a snowfest. The Kilemche jailoo on the northern side of Song Kul affords splendid views over the lake and, with an altitude of 2600m to 3500m and a northern slope face, there is always plenty of powder to go around.
